I will be honest, I expected a console priority with handheld feature but a handheld priority with console feature is much better for me and a more justifiable purchase considering I will likely stick with Sony or Microsoft for console.
I am excited to get my hands on this, especially with the full force of Nintendo first party behind it. New full scale Zelda and new full scale Mario on the go? Wow!

Yeah this is where I'm at. Assuming they're using the latest (or even a new) Tegra chip, it will be considerably more powerful than a WiiU. I am afraid for battery life, however.
Yup. This is literally exactly what I wanted. I've mostly skipped Nintendo consoles because the library wasn't enough to warrant entire hardware, but now having it all unified? Perfect. And if that means WiiU-esque graphics at 1080p? Fine with that, my PC is for third party stuff anyway.
Assuming Nintendo doesn't end up shitting the bed somehow, I think this'll be my first day-one purchase since the X360.
I.. is that a 'shop? Lang is literally floating in the air.

He's sitting on the bricks, there's a bit of an optical illusion going on.
But let's be clear, Lang is capable of levitation.
Boyes CEO of Iron Galaxy http://venturebeat.com/2016/07/26/former-sony-exec-adam-boyes-joins-indie-dev-iron-galaxy-as-ceo/
Sorry Lang, but if you're not the CEO, we're going to need to see ID.
This is dope

Now I'm even more excited for the live Bombcast today.
Hopefully all of Nintendo's future games will come out on this, instead of splitting teams across the Wii U and the 3DS in the past.
Plus if they want to make smaller games they can start to make some great things on mobile.
Exciting times.
Also Adam Boyes news is cool.

I am shocked. SHOCKED! Johnny V wasnt the one who ended up at Iron Galaxy.
Whatever makes Boyes happy I guess. Iron Galaxy's PR people are probably stoked their CEO i=wont be a drunk mess infront of a camera every gaming event.

Divekick makes a lot more sense when you accept that Dave Lang can levitate at will.

The NX news is absolutely fascinating but I'm afraid there are a lot of people making assumptions about how it will be when there just isn't enough information, still rumor and speculation. However this does count towards the idea that this will be a unified console, no 3DS this year, which could be news for having an absurd library.
I really hope the two controller thing isn't a required, built in component of on the go gaming. I rarely would have use of the second controller and would hate to have the extra weight.

The NX reports nail the most important thing, which is allowing all of Nintendo's core games to be playable on a single platform. Western third parties aren't coming back, so doubling down on Nintendo's great strength is the only sensible decision.
As someone who primarily associates Nintendo with their handhelds, I'm very happy.

Aren't they the only option for handhelds now that the Vita is dead?

Pretty much, which is why this is so awesome. I don't mind mobile games, but it's good to see the only real competition for it double-down.
I will freak the fuck out if they reveal an NX exclusive Devil Survivor 3.

He was giving something special for the E3 viewers. He saved E3.
So if the NX is a handheld and a home console and unifies the platforms for Nintendo what does this mean for the games? Will we get 3DS type games on the NX and console games too?
I'm mainly curious as to what the former 3DS games / franchises like Pokemon will do going forward? Pokemon for example, will they still make smaller games like they always have for handhelds for the NX or will they use the power and actually make that full on console version of their handheld games that people have wanted forever? Or will we just get the same handheld games that they have always made but can now be played on a TV as well.

This'll be anyone's guess because we still don't know if these rumors are accurate, or even what Nintendo's plan for the console is.

I think the handheld/lower budget selection will be similar scope but with better visuals and at a higher resolution.
3DS games are looking real ropey in 2016.
I don't understand the question. If Nintendo will only have one system going forward because splitting the development ressources was stupid and a hybrid prevents them from having to decide between mobile and home console. So of course Pokemon and stuff will come to it. Not suing the hardware would be fucking stupid.
Did you just call SamSho trash?

The live show is for premium members only so it wouldn't be a good idea I think.
I'm sure the thread starters will include links to the YouTube video that goes up after.

Live shows are premium so I don't think it gets own thread.

In what sense?
tremendous audio quality
Yeah, I don't understand what any of them are sitting on.
Why are ppl (in the main thread) all "I told you NX was going to be a hybrid and nobody would listen". I mean, it was the rumour ever since the existence of the NX got leaked. People were talking about Nintendo unifying the platforms before the 3DS came out.
That rumour about no BC makes sense but some fans are going to be salty as fuck if that turns out to be correct. Can't wait for the tears.

A Nintendo hybrid handheld that you can play on your TV? Sign me up if we get an Animal Crossing game year 1.

Wow I'm really surprised by how striking Headlander looks. The lighting is stunning. Great style, and a fresh gameplay gimmick. Looks like a purchase.

I'm having trouble understanding the NX and that thread is moving too fast. So long as I can treat it 100% as a regular console I'll be happy. It sounds as if any touch screen or dual screen business is gone.
